About This Excursion

Marrakech Day Trip

For travellers staying in Essaouira who want to see Marrakech without moving hotels, this full-day trip covers the city's essential sights in one well-organised visit.

The day starts with a walk through the medina — its souks, craft workshops and historic lanes — followed by lunch, then Majorelle Garden, the cobalt-blue villa and garden once owned by Yves Saint Laurent, and the nearby Yves Saint Laurent Museum. A last coffee near Jemaa el-Fna completes the day before the drive back.

With around 3 hours of driving each way, it is a long day, but a practical way to fit Marrakech into a stay on the coast.

✓Private transfer from Essaouira
✓Guided walk through the medina
✓Colourful souks and craft workshops
✓Majorelle Garden
✓Yves Saint Laurent Museum
✓Return to Essaouira the same evening
